I’ve been detecting for 10yrs and learned a few good pointers. Slainte 🍷
That’s really great ❤ thank you so much for the kind feedback 😊
Thanks so much for this Ellie, brilliant tips and advice. It has given me the confidence to ask for new permissions, what’s the worst they can do? Say no, that’s all. It’s worth a go even though I know it can be daunting, I’ll let you know how I get on. Thanks again, love watching your videos, you’re a breath of fresh air, always so positive and I love your passion for our brilliant hobby and the history we discover. I love learning about the things I find and what it tells me about the area I live in 😁
You have sparkly eyes, a beautiful smile, you are well spoken and you are very pleasing to the eye. No one is going to say no! At my age, I have none of that, but after 50 years in hospitality, I can talk to people. I put a can of local craft beer in my back pocket with my metal detecting business card under the rig pull. I give them the beer whether they say yes or no. On it is says I can find any lost metal objects. And of course I thank them for talking to me. You have lots of great advice, and I love the word 'Project'.
It's great to see a detectorist addressing the more complex issues of detecting. There is so much more work behind the scenes with this hobby than people think. Keep up the good work Ellie, your passion shines through. See you on the local digs. 👍
Aww thanks Marion see you soon in the fields!
Great video! … I watched the whole thing ..which is something. Keeping me engaged on anything for 45 minutes is no mean feat. I loved your tips / suggestions / information and think they are most sensible and useful. I’m new to this hobby and loving it … 👍 thank you for this and well done, keep up the good work!
Hey Barry thanks a lot for your kind words! Good luck in the hobby! Loads of other vids for you to watch including all the ups and downs!
@@miss_detectorist a pleasure, I’ve watched a few videos already and I am having similar experiences, albeit I’m a year behind you experience wise ….
Hi, Ellie. Recently found your channel. I've been going through you past videos. I love your joyful attitude, even in torrential rain and winds. 😁 I'm here in the US. Wish we had the history you detectorists have in the UK.
It’s great you’re here - welcome!
Learned a lot and enjoyed the format of your presentation. Thanks for sharing your tips and suggestions!
Ellie what a great video you have inspired me to go out and find my first permissions after watching this video ,many thanks for opening my eyes to take the next step in metal detecting 🙂
So glad you found it helpful 😊
Great pointers with permission. Took a while to get one myself but worth it. You build up a trust over time and same as yourself park up near farm house but not in the way of day to day business and they soon know who's vehicle is who's. Sherwd lot farming folk. A big club offered hundreds of pounds for a day dig but thankfully my farmer said no chance having all those people and cars over the land. So it's good to know the big clubs don't get all the permission. Great advice 😊
Thanks David for your input - good to hear!
Always enjoy the content, been detecting since the 70's and currently struggling for permissions.
Hi Ellie very useful information, your right , I’m a chimney sweep shy and I’ve built the trust over the years and pop the question, which is how eye do it, eye have so many haven’t had the time to get around quarter of them , eye do feel sorry for those who haven’t got any, eye now take some one with me most of the time, That hasn’t any around the purbecks keep up the good work, can’t wait for the one about the liedar and how you do it.🎩
Hi Ellie, I am surprised you have only 2.25 K subscribers. I can'y think why as I agree with Alex that you are abreath of fresh air and even when you catch nothing but a cold you make it real and interesting, so much that you feel like you are there beside you in the cold and rain. The Spanish Detectorist you will get there and before also has only 4K subscribers and like you he is entertaining and likeable andprobably many of those are thanks to the Scottish detectorist shouting him out. Anyway I just wanted to say don't change anything,
sorry for the bad editing. it was 4 am in Tasmania
What a lovely message thank you! I’m still pretty new to RUclips and glad that anyone at all has found me! Not sure how to spread the word but grateful to Alex for lifting my channel up this week 😃
I'm a cut up Miss Ellie. But I've been going back through your videos. Thanks for visiting with us
Hi Ellie
Thanks for this live chat. As I still haven't secured my first permissions, I have found lots of useful information/tips on how to approach the farmers/ land owners in this episode. I have been detectorists since January this year. I am a member of NCMD and Cotswold Metal Detecting Club. Somehow, I even managed to get onto their (CMDC) front page. Which was a great feeling and fun at the same time. I'm a bit shy person myself as well. Therefore, only yesterday, I went from door to door to find my first permission. I wish I had watched this live chat first. The reason behind this is that when I approach farmers I sort of saying " hi, I am detectorists would you let me to do what I love on your land please "? Only now I have realised that I sound a bit begging. Also I’m putting people in an awkward position. So from now on I'll try a different way of asking about permission. I even have a plan already. I am going to do sort of business card. In the title, I think to put " save the history with Jake" or " Search for the history with Jake" and then below my details. So every time I get the answer "no" I will kindly ask if I can leave my details with them. Just in case they change their mind. What do you think about it Ellie? Once again thanks for great tips.
I wish you all the best 👍
Jake
I think I would put something like:
Jake (your surname)
Local Detectorist - NCMD insured
Your Contact details
Maybe a pic of you detecting if you have a nice one and look friendly!
.. doesn’t need to be anything more than that, on the back you could hand write - “I’m looking to add a couple of projects and wondered if you’d be interested in finding out more about history on the land here? Happy to pop back sometime and chat! Jake”
As discussed in the vid, I personally wouldn’t knock but just pop it through the letterbox - but that’s just me! I’m too shy.
Thank you very much Ellie. I really appreciate your help. Today I spoke to the farmer and I mention him about the history of his land. He took my number! That never happened to me before. Your advices are working already! 🎉
@@jakubrusinek5004brilliant - well done!
I hate lives normally as it’s all bitty with people saying hi when someone new joins. And it can feel like it’s all about their mates and a bit of a love in which just switches me off. Yours wasn’t like that - just a nice mix of reacting to comments but also about good content. I learnt some great information too. I’ve loads of permissions and have used a different approach that works but I love your ‘project’ approach - I’m going to adopt it! And I also never thought about how saying ‘dig’ might sound to the land owner. Obvious once you think about it but I doubt 99.9% of us have. Very good content that you’d obviously really thought about.
@@catherinelange5109 thanks Catherine that’s great to hear!
Hey, thanks for the advice on permissions, I'm pretty shy and anxious about approaching and asking but watching this has Def made me feel better about doing it. I'm really hoping I'll get my first sometime this year! Need to push myself 😅
Hi Sammi shy means sensitive and self-aware, I think sensitivity is huge plus point! I hope you find the perfect land owner and get the chance to practice and grow your confidence. 😊
Hi Ellie thanks for all your information very helpful I've just got a meeting with a land owner 303 acres fingers crossed 😊
Very best of luck I hope you have a great visit and get on well together 😊
No insult to Alex or Clegg of course.
Great Roman stuff
Also good to give a bottle of wine at Christmas to your land owner as a wee thank you
Nice touch!
Removing unwanted metals from the fields too
Hiya just started watching your channel couple months ago I was giving 3 metal detectors a Garrett 300i and a scope one that hose in water and our one not sure what it is went down our local beach found untolds of cans n ring pulls would love to do it on a proper field any advise would be grateful I live in kent
Hi Rebekah - well you’re watching the right vid - I’ve tried to include my tips here for getting permission on land local to you - but please also read the comments as others have chipped in their advice too!
@@miss_detectorist thank you and it’s her boyfriend who wants advice thank kind regards Kev 👍
@@rebekahleech5354 oh sorry - hi kev!
@@miss_detectorist hi that’s ok I no we got lots of Roman Viking Saxon in kent but any advice would be grateful thank you
Here in the US we just door knock and getting permission is easy I feel sorry for you guys in the uk
Thank you for your kind words - but don’t feel too sorry for us, once we score that permission we can find some truly fantastic things! (Sometimes 😂)
Ah yes but we do have 2000 years of history to find- so don't feel too sorry 😊
I ain't shaving my legs to ask 😂
Avarice is destroying our great hobby making it harder for the solo detectorist
Solo detectorists just have to find a match with the right landowner, I reckon. Day digs have their place for those who want social connection and like to explore different regions. 😊
Ha
You're a 1000 times better looking than Cleggy and twice as much as Alexander 😂
Why hi there pretty lady
